The lightweight flexible polyurethane steel wire duct hose is designed for air, dust, and light material applications. This product is recommended for industrial air movement, fume control, and dust collection applications. The polyurethane wall and spring steel wire helix reinforcement gives the product excellent compressibility, abrasion resistance, and chemical resistance. One of the main advantages of polyurethane components is their excellent resistance to wear in both sliding and impact abrasion. The thinner wall permits this polyurethane hose to have excellent compression ratio lower weight per linear foot, and great flexibility.The clear version is made from FDA acceptable materials. A clear flexible hose also allows operators to see clogs, which makes for a perfect dust collector hose.
